Meet MaryAnn Dawood
I always knew that “The bond between the couple is the heartbeat of the home”. The heartbeat is the life force. When the couples relationship is characterized by a lot of conflict and fighting, it resonates in the home. I knew that when you help a couple, you help them as individuals and you help their home! There is no greater pursuit in my eyes !
